Peyton Manning gets Active Release Technique, a lot of it, and he would probably tell you to give it a spin as well!
So Mr. Never Give Up is back and possibly riding out his final rodeo in a few weeks at the “Golden” Super Bowl at the new Levi’s Stadium in San Francisco, California. I’m guessing you have an idea of who I am speaking of, a few neck surgeries, a bad plantar fascia, a few cases […]
